Interested in becoming an advocate?
No superpowers are required. Just a powerful voice to speak up for children and youth in foster care.
You form strong bonds through outings, spending time together, and listening. When these children face challenges in life or in court, you can be there with kindness, support, and hope for the future. Become a voice for the voiceless.
Become a CASA Hero of Hope!
